More information about the downtime :
What's to say TM didn't get multiple blocks in 6 days & just pick a random recent block from Blockexplorer as the 'solved' one to keep people mining?
It displayed '0 total shares' right after the block was "found" after 140 or so hours.
You guys must have nerves of steel or low enough hash rates to not really care about it, but I can't mine with that possibility existing 24/7. I wont lose sleep over something like that.
The downtime happened at around 5AM on a sunday our time, everyone was sleeping and there was not yet a monitorring system for the stats server.
The exact error was that the java ran out of
memory after the block fell since it had to go over allmost 6 million rows to calculate the
payout:
